The hamster cage should be cleaned once a week. While cleaning the cage, the hamster may be allowed to explore the floor in his RollerBowl. Cleaning the cagecan cause stress to the hamster, especially if he returns to it and does not recognize his own scent!So try to return much of his original nest as you can,after giving it a shake to dispose of any unwantedwaste matter. Also return his secret store of food that he may have hidden in a corner, after removing any softfruit or rottable food. Use a mild disinfectant and becertain that the cage is completely dry before returning the hamster to his home.

If you use sawdust for your cage, make sure it is not too fine or dusty, and that it is clean.I prefer Wood shavings to sawdust, as occasionally hamsters in sawdust can get a fit of sneezing.DO NOT USE CEDAR WOOD SHAVINGS. most hamsters areallergic to cedar wood.
